Method

  1. Heat 3 tsp oil in a medium saucepan and cook the onion for 3-4 mins until golden. Stir in the rice and 1 tsp fajita seasoning, then cook for 1 min. Pour in 300ml boiling water and a pinch of salt and stir. Cover and simmer for 15-20 mins until all the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Stir in the beans and keep warm.
  2. Meanwhile, rub the remaining oil, fajita seasoning and salt and pepper over the rump steaks. Heat a griddle pan, then fry the steaks for 2-3 mins each side. Stir the coriander into the rice and serve with the steaks and a dollop of salsa on top.

Make it a wrap

Tip the kidney beans into a heatproof bowl and microwave on High for 3 mins. Drain and mash with a fork, then stir in 3 tbsp tomato salsa. Spread the mixture over 4 warmed soft flour tortillas. Cook the seasoned steak as before and cut into strips. Arrange on top of the bean mixture, then spoon over some soured cream, guacamole and salsa. Roll up and enjoy.

    Good easy recipe for a quick dinner. We also made it in to wraps without the steak and these were really yummy so will be doing those again.

    We really didn't like this at all, despite being fajita fans.
